Location: WY : Ten Sleep Canyon : Oblivion Roof : Killer Karma (5.11d) By: Bryson Slothower When: May 31, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: I remember hanging off the last bolt and later regretting not taking the ride from off the lip, looks like a clean fall. Then again it could be tricky to get back onto the route hanging out there in space and this one is definitely better cleaned by a second...

Location: International : North America : St. Maarten/St. Martin By: Bryson Slothower When: Oct 20, 2008 | view comment >> |
Comments: I spent several months on St. Martin and explored several crags on the Dutch side. There was some definite potential on the sharp limestone but no sign of any route development.

Location: WA : Mount Rainier : Emmons Glacier (Mod. Snow) By: Bryson Slothower When: Jun 24, 2007 | view comment >> |
Comments: A flood during the winter of 2007 washed out much of the trail between the White River ranger station and Glacier Basin. While the trial is being rebuilt there is yellow flag tape marking the route for about a mile. Expect loose rock in washed out gullies and downed trees to delay travel a bit.

Location: OR : Smith Rock : Red Wall : Orgasmophoria (5.10c) By: Bryson Slothower When: Sep 18, 2006 | view comment >> |
Comments: I watched a party get stuck on this route by trying to rap. The top anchor is not set up for rappelling and if it were the rap would require two ropes. The party I watched struggle had the leader climb the second pitch and attempt to rap back to his partner anchored in atop the first pitch. After threading the bolts up top the leader rapped with one rope and found himself far from the anchor with a stuck rope and a stranded partner.

Comments: What a great route!! Fun and techy climbing low to a power-pocket-fest up high. Compared to some of the other 11.d's at the Mondo this one felt a bit soft. Do it!
